Bad experiences w/ Warrantybynet.com (long vent)
 
So last week, I casually surf onto their website to check and see if I can get a quote on my car so I can get an idea of how much an extended warranty is going to cost, but since then, they've had a salesman who has been incredibly rude and "pushy" selling the me. The guy doesn't even know what the heck he's talking about. He starts babbling about how a "quattro engine" is high maintainance and stupid crap like that. He doesn't even know my car is AWD and thinks that quattro is a type of engine. What an idiot! He gets noticeably upset on the telephone when I tell him I need time to make my decision and has the worst attitude I've ever heard from a salesman. Their plan does seem to be very extensive, but are there any other alternatives? I would definitely pay a higher premium for a place with better customer service and attitude. That's about it. Thanks for your time.

I've had great experiences with WarrantyDirect.com with...
 
...a previous car. They are a real company, and I had no trouble with the two claims I placed.

Just be sure that you read and abide by whatever terms you end up with, regardless of the company.

I have a warrantybynet warranty and had the complete opposite experience.
 
The girl i spoke with was very nice and informative and really helped me out with all my questions. I think you just got a bad rep is all...

Yeah, they're pretty pushy with the sales
 
I filled out an online form for a quick quote and foolishly used my real cell # and my real email. They called & spamming me for quite some time after. They finally stopped calling when I asked them to stop, and thank god for that "block sender" option on Hotmail!

What do you all think about extended warranties? I'm looking at getting it.

Try GE Auto Warranty - expensive but excellent coverage and service

Well ya, if you have the warranty then the sales guy isn't going to call. I asked about a warranty on a potential purchase, and they called me for 2 months to see if I wanted to sign up to protect my new Audi. Didn't have one. Now I do, and they're not involved.
